Product Overview:
Full-length human CHRM3 cDNA encoding M3
Background Information:
The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) family consists of five GPCRs that mediate some of the neurotransmission functions of acetylcholine in the CNS and the periphery. The M1, M3 and M5 receptors couple to Gq to mobilize intracellular calcium, whereas the M2 and M4 receptors couple to Gi/o to inhibit cAMP production (Caulfield and Birdsall, 1998). M3 is expressed prominently in smooth muscle, and plays a primary role in mediating mAChR agonist-induced contractility. Mice lacking M3 have dilated pupils, which indicates a role for M3 in regulating tone of the pupillary sphincter muscle. In addition, M3 plays a role in feeding, as indicated by the lean and hypophagic phenotype of M3-null mice (Wess, 2004). Chemicon's cloned human M3-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant M3 expression on the cell surface and contains high levels of the promiscuous G protein Gα15 to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for antagonists of interactions between M3 and its ligands.
Application Notes:
Calcium flux assay, ligand binding assays

Entrez Gene Summary:
The muscarinic cholinergic receptors belong to a larger family of G protein-coupled receptors. The functional diversity of these receptors is defined by the binding of acetylcholine and includes cellular responses such as adenylate cyclase inhibition, phosphoinositide degeneration, and potassium channel mediation. Muscarinic receptors influence many effects of acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. The muscarinic cholinergic receptor 3 controls smooth muscle contraction and its stimulation causes secretion of glandular tissue.
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P20309 # The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mediates various cellular responses, including inhibition of adenylate cyclase, breakdown of phosphoinositides and modulation of potassium channels through the action of G proteins. Primary transducing effect is Pi turnover.

Storage Conditions:
1. Immediately upon receipt, thaw cells or place cells in liquid nitrogen. Maintain frozen in liquid nitrogen for up to 5 years.
2. Thaw cells rapidly by removing from liquid nitrogen and immediately immersing in a 37ºC water bath. Immediately after ice has thawed, sterilize the exterior of the vial with 70% ethanol. Transfer contents of the vial to a T75 flask containing growth media. Place the flask in a humidified incubator at 37ºC with 5% CO2.
3. After 8-24 h, all live cells will be attached. Viability of the cells is expected to be 50-80%. At this time, replace media to remove residual DMSO, and return to incubator.
4. When cells are approximately 80% confluent, passage the cells as follows: Remove media and wash once with HBSS without Ca++ and Mg++ (10 mL/T75). Add 0.05% trypsin/0.2 g/L EDTA (1 mL/T75) and place in humidified incubator at 37ºC with 5% CO2 until cells begin to round up and detach (5-10 minutes). Gently rap the side of the flask to dislodge the cells. Neutralize trypsin by addition of 4 mL Chem-1 Growth Media per 1 mL trypsin.
5. Cells are typically passaged 1:10 every 3-4 days. Passaging ratio may be varied according to requirements of the investigator.
6. Frozen stocks of cells should be prepared at the earliest passage possible after thawing, as follows: Count detached cells (prepared as in Step 4). Centrifuge cells at 200 x g for 5 min. Resuspend cells at 5 x 106 cells/mL in Chem-1 Freezing Media (cell densities of 2-10 x 106 are also acceptable if necessary). Dispense 1 mL aliquots into cryopreservation vials. Freeze the cells by a controlled rate process, such as in an isopropanol-jacketed container placed at –70°C overnight. Store the vials in liquid nitrogen.
7. Use of cells immediately after thawing is feasible for some cell lines and is being further validated. Some cell lines may need to be passaged at least once after thawing prior to use in calcium flux assays. Cells should be resuspended in Chem-1 Plating Media for plating for calcium assay.
